Democrats Support Bush, Yet Again
And thank God, because imagine what this country would be like if Bush couldn't get all of his legislation passed with ease. Imagine what would happen if the democrats stood up and said that the War on Iraq has nothing at all to do with the "War on Terrorism" (except perhaps for promoting terrorism against the US). What does it mean when the only senator with the backbone to stand up to Bush is an ex-republican? Truly the democratic party is beyond pathetic and beyond redemption.

URGENT calls are needed! National Call-In Day to Protect National Forests!
Your calls are urgently needed into the Senate as the deal on HR 1904, the so-called "Healthy Forests Restoration Act of 2003" is soon to be brought to the Senate floor (Call in script below). This call-in day is perfectly timed, and we hope that everyone can make calls. It is critical that every Senator be educated on the issue and hears from us! We need to keep the pressure on our Senators so that they continue to oppose Bush's HR 1904, or to change their minds if they are currently a supporter of Bush's plan. The Senators are listening, and even starting to question the new version of the bad bill. Let your Senator know that the negotiated Senate deal would still implement the Bush Administration's "Healthy Forests Initiative" and is strikingly similar to the House passed version of HR 1904. Although the language in parts of the Senate version has been changed, there are many loopholes in the deal that render the negotiated changes hollow.

You can call your Senator toll-free to DC at: 1-800-648-3516 OR 1-800-839-5276 OR (202) 224-3121

Rising Health-Care Costs at Heart of Labor Strife
Such arguments prompted organized labor to lobby for a
new [California] law that would require businesses with more than
20 workers to provide health-care coverage and pick up
80% of premiums, or pay into a state fund that would
do it for them. Under the new law, businesses with 200
or more employees would have to provide coverage for
workers and their families beginning in 2006. Smaller
firms gradually would be required to offer similar
benefits.
